"But the tiny company [FON] also got publicity from another source:
influential commentators on the Internet who write blogs -- including
some who may be compensated in the future for advising FON about its

The avalanche of blogging about FON, much of it from people now tied
to the four-month-old company, highlights the rising influence of
blogs in shaping opinions about tech start-ups, particularly in
Silicon Valley. It also reveals the possible conflicts of interest
such complicated relationships can dredge up."
